We know Jesus has saved us. We know we need to trust him. But too often there’s little sense of a lived experience of him—of enjoying him and being a joy to him, of loving him and being loved by him, of interacting with him as we walk through each day.
In Enjoying Jesus, Tim Chester explores how Jesus acted and interacted with people in Luke’s Gospel and how, through his Spirit, we can experience the joy of Jesus’ presence and companionship in our day-to-day lives.
This book is ideal for anyone wanting to deepen their relationship with Jesus, especially those who feel disconnected from God or those going through the ...motions of the Christian life without joy. It will also help new Christians who want to understand how Jesus is with them by his Spirit.
Each chapter includes reflection questions and practical suggestions on how to experience a close, joyful relationship with Jesus. The accompanying discussion guide makes this a useful resource for small groups.
(Review written for 'Enjoying Jesus (ebook)')
A friend of mine and I went through this book together. We shared with each other the wonderful truths Tim Chester points out along the way, some of which were different perspectives than what we had considered before.
Tim Chester encourages his readers to truly recognize and dwell on the ways that Jesus loves us and is present with us in our everyday lives. Each chapter in this book is about a different attribute of Jesus, such as his compassion, glory, intercession, and reign, and Chester unpacks each of these attributes in detail, exploring Scripture passages related to these themes and suggesting action steps that people can take to better connect with this aspect of who Jesus is. Each chapter concludes with an addition to a fictional case study for how some people might integrate these ideas into ...their day-to-day, along with a brief action step and some reflection questions.
This book is full of encouraging truths, and it can help people connect with Jesus as a person, instead of just having head knowledge about him. I especially appreciated the chapter about Jesus's anger, which is an under-acknowledged aspect of his character that means a lot to me personally. However, even though I appreciate the author's goal and found many aspects of this book helpful, I also thought it was longer and wordier than it needed to be, and that it could have packed an even greater punch if it had been more concise. Some of the chapters have overlapping themes, and aspects of the book seem repetitive.
This is a great book for both new and longtime Christians who want to better understand and engage with the character and presence of Jesus. This is suitable for individual reading and for church groups to read together, and it can also be appropriate for family devotions with older children and teens.
I received a free copy from the publisher, and am voluntarily leaving an honest review.
Our home group have really enjoyed this book. It has a wonderful balance of biblical teaching and personal application. It approaches so many different aspects of our walk with Jesus and is encouraging. It took me a few sessions to work out how to use it in a group, there are good reminders and questions at the end of each chapter, but we also have different members of the group different verses referred to in the chapter to report back on to the group that worked well and led to further discussion. Chapters aren’t to long or dense.
